Photographer’s Note

No...this is not a tree. :-) It is actually an unusual chandelier in the food market at Grand Central Station.

This man-made, inverted tree is covered with crystals and hangs at the entrance to the market.

Ha! Great idea for a composition. The thumbnail image is quite misleading and it is a beautifully detailed image. Well done!

Creative shot that shows what can happen when one looks up! Wonder how many people who pass daily would ever know it is there? Great idea with nice framing.

Hi Brenda, as others have commented it's great to expect a tree and then to find it's something else (thanks for your note). With a tree in mind it's a mystery what the scale of it really is but it looks impressive and the strong contrast is good.
